Wow, isn't this 1 dollar seed performing :P The force is strong in this one. If I had to complain, the buds have a lot of leaves, but hey, were not... What a joy to grow this strain, she is easy to grow and creates big buds, I hope she tastes like a Kush and we will be happy campers with this one. The lights were a bit too close to her, she really didn't enjoy that light and heat, so we raised them, and after that growth went exponential in the buds again. And this for two or three more weeks, depending on the trichomes which I like for a large part amber so add another week for this. I'm guessing 1st week of January that she can be harvested, we shall see! Don't forget to check out the Christmas deals at www.mars-hydro.com, if you are still in doubt, see in the lights page of the SP-3000, what the score is of this light and the results people have with it. Thank you for visiting my journal again! Hug Bud

Additional supplements: (ml/g) .4 drip clean, .25 roots excelurator, .5 amino treatment, 3.0 multi zen, 2.0 hydroguard. The tent smells good 😊. 8/2 The goal is to have 6-9" through the scrog at the end of week 3 flower I'm pretty close the taller ones are 6-7" through the scrog now. 8/3 took 7cuttings from Acid Dough "C" for clones. 8/5 could be more level but I'm happy. 8/6 another round of defoliating lots of branches just below the canopy opened them up.

This is a giant autoflower that reaches 150cm and produces massive yields of up to 600gr/m2, a modern Cali strain that offers what a top-quality Indica-dominant hybrid should; nugs capped in resin with the density you would expect from Indica-dominant strains and that bag appeal that will surprise even the most experienced growers. Expect beautiful purple and magenta hues that come along with a sweet almost pastry-like taste and, thanks to the 24% THC, a very pleasant and potent effect that surprisingly starts as a motivating high and in no time relaxes you completely, taking a bit of the energetic edge off.

È venuto un bel casino, perché tra la prima e la seconda settimana di fioritura sono stato via 5 giorni, e al ritorno mi sono trovato 3 piante che avevano preso il sopravvento sulle altre e allora ho potuto solo piegare perché già non ci stavano più. Le piante hanno 25 giorni di vegetativa e 36 di fioritura

🌸 Lava Cake – Week 5 Flower Report 🌸 We’ve reached Week 5 of flower — such an important and defining stage in the Lava Cake journey. Both phenos are shining, evolving beautifully, and filling the room with life and energy. It’s a week full of growth, observations, and some lessons to share. ⸻ 🌿 Current Status • Both plants are looking healthy, vigorous, and branching strong. • White hairs (pistils) continue to thicken and spread — the first signs of real bud-building. • Leaves show some spots, likely a touch of CalMag deficiency. This is not uncommon at this stage, as the plants’ demands for calcium and magnesium rise sharply during heavy metabolic activity. To support them, I’ve kept the full nutrient recipe steady this week and reintroduced Aptus All-in-One Liquid to strengthen the nutritional foundation and bounce them back quickly. ⸻ 💧 Nutrient Recipe (Week 5) • Aptus Regulator – cell wall support & stress resistance • Aptus CalMag Boost – to address spotted leaves and support photosynthesis • Aptus All-in-One Liquid – reintroduced this week to balance the base nutrition and help recovery from early deficiency signs • Plagron Power Buds, Sugar Royal & Green Sensation – pushing bud development, resin, and flavor complexity ⚠️ Note on feeding adjustments: This week we removed Top Booster from the mix. While it’s a great stimulator during certain flower stages, running it alongside Power Buds, Sugar Royal, and Green Sensation risks overlapping too much PK. Too much of a good thing can cause stress, salt build-up, or nutrient lockouts. By keeping the recipe focused and balanced, the Lava Cakes can thrive without overload. ⸻ 🌡️ Environment • Temperatures: Lower this week (relief!) thanks to cooling efforts. • Humidity: Still running a little high, sometimes hovering beyond the ideal. • Airflow: Two 6-inch exhausts + intake, all carbon filtered. This, along with fans inside, should keep the air moving and avoid stagnant moisture pockets. ⚠️ Note: Higher humidity at this stage can invite mold or mildew risks, but with strong airflow and constant air renewal, we’re reducing the chances. If issues arise, we’ll face them directly and adjust. ⸻ 🎥 Media Update This week includes: • Outside photoshoots – capturing their beauty under LED light. • Close-ups – showing detail of leaves, bud sites, and trichome sparkle starting to appear. • Video clips – giving a fuller view of the room, the setup, and how the girls are thriving. ⸻ 🔄 Quick Recap for New Readers From seed in the Cannakan ➝ early veg under Black Series LED ➝ transplant into 11L fabric pots with Aptus super soil base ➝ branching and stretching under TrollMaster-controlled environment ➝ to now, Week 5 of flower, where the Lava Cakes are stacking up and turning into queens. Each step has been intentional: careful watering from below to build root strength, dialing in nutrients, setting up airflow, and slowly stabilizing environment. ⸻ 🔮 What to Expect (and Not to Expect) Expect: • Continued flower stacking and calyx swelling over the next two weeks. • Aroma development beginning to intensify. • Slight yellowing or spotting on older leaves (normal as energy redirects to flowers). Not to Expect: • Full bulk yet — this comes in the later weeks, especially 6–8. • Perfect leaves everywhere — in flower, the plant focuses on buds, not flawless foliage. ⸻ 🌎 Closing Thoughts Week 5 is about listening and responding. The Lava Cakes showed us some leaf spots, and in return, we adjusted by reintroducing All-in-One Liquid while simplifying the booster recipe. Removing Top Booster avoids nutrient overlap and keeps the focus on a clean, balanced mix. This isn’t just about correcting deficiencies — it’s about preparing them for the heavier bloom demands to come. With lower temperatures, steady airflow, and a carefully tuned recipe, the girls are thriving. Every day brings more white hairs, more structure, and more anticipation for what’s ahead. ⸻ 🔬 Science Spotlight: Nutrient Antagonism One of the biggest hidden challenges in mid-flower is nutrient antagonism — when too much of one element blocks the uptake of another. • Excess phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) (often from bloom boosters) can interfere with calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) absorption. This can show up as leaf spotting, rust marks, or weakened stems even if those nutrients are technically present in the soil. • By removing Top Booster this week, we reduced the PK load and allowed CalMag supplementation to actually reach the plant without being locked out. • Balance always beats excess. The goal is steady, accessible nutrition, not maxing out one element. This principle is key to avoiding deficiencies during bloom: feed enough, but not too much of any one thing. ⸻ 🔬 Trichome Spotlight If you look closely at the close-ups this week, you’ll notice the first tiny crystals beginning to coat the flowers and nearby leaves. These are trichomes — microscopic resin glands that play a central role in the plant’s defense, flavor, and potency. ✨ What are trichomes? Trichomes are specialized structures on the plant’s surface that produce and store secondary metabolites: • Cannabinoids (like THC, CBD, CBG) • Terpenes (the aromatic compounds that give unique smells and flavors) • Flavonoids (contributing to color, taste, and subtle effects) Essentially, trichomes are the plant’s biochemical factories. 🌿 Why are they appearing now? In early flower, the plant begins to shift its energy from vegetative growth to reproduction and protection. Trichomes serve several evolutionary purposes: • Protection from UV light – the resin acts like sunscreen. • Pest deterrence – sticky, bitter compounds discourage insects. • Moisture regulation – resin helps buffer against stress. That’s why, right as buds begin to stack, you see an explosion of these glittering glands. 🔮 What to expect as they develop? • Density will increase week by week, eventually frosting the buds and sugar leaves. • Color will change: clear → cloudy/milky → amber. These stages are often used to decide harvest timing. • Aroma will intensify as terpenes concentrate, bringing out Lava Cake’s dessert-like profile. 🍯 The chemistry inside • Terpenes – molecules like limonene (citrus), myrcene (earthy), and caryophyllene (spicy). They don’t just shape aroma; they influence the entourage effect, modulating how cannabinoids feel. • Flavonoids – often overlooked, but they add subtle notes to flavor and can have antioxidant properties. • Cannabinoids – still forming now, but ramping up in mid-to-late flower. 🌸 Why this matters Seeing trichomes appear in such numbers this early is a sign of plant health and genetic quality. It means the Lava Cakes are channeling their energy toward flower defense and resin production — exactly what we want in a premium run. From here, it’s all about nurturing them without stress so trichomes can fully mature, delivering not just potency, but flavor and aroma complexity at harvest.They’re queens in the making — and with patience, love, and attention, they’ll reward us with something truly special. 🌸✨ 📲 Don’t forget to Subscribe and follow me on Instagram and YouTube @DogDoctorOfficial for exclusive content, real-time updates, and behind-the-scenes magic.

14/03/2025 Lights Off! Light Increased: 420 ..and out of the chaotic shadows appears order! The Great Reset has finished! Its all about getting Greenland and as far north as possible! Onwards and upwards 🙌 I mean; literally! 16/03/2024 Evening meal: slow roasted pork with Apple Sage! All "PrepKitchen" meals are Keto friendly 😋 Healthy diet is a must! Very high protein and extra 2 veg and low in carbohydrates. I have always said; maybe not here but if a beach has only has hald of its waters populated with green Algie in it. 15/03/2025 Lights On! Sprayed tent walls with 6%HP FG and all the little domes with 0.5%HP FG Midday! Sprayed them again with distilled water × h202 domes (0.5%/L ) and sprayed tent walls and light with 6%HP FG They are looking lively now! CHECK OUT THE VT!! 15/03/2025 Lights Off! P.s "As long as your body is healthy; you have thousands of problems. But as soon as it's sick; you have but one problem!" - people take care of your body! I know i should of used the term the biggest cause of death is "Doctor Misconduct" and it's world wide, not just the NHS but World-wide! They are the cause of all the problems willing or unwillingly. Seedlings: 1week 1 day Old! I kknow they look much older; to me anyways! 16/03/2024 Lights On! Tidy up trim! Lite defol. VT Before and the VT After They look similar to a "Bonsai type of training" Here is a ..''paradox'' for ya: A man fell seriously ill with a deadly skin infection and, after recovering, asked his neighbor, "Why didn’t you send me a 'Get Well Soon' card during my treatments and recovery? The only 'Get Well Soon' cards I received were from people who knew it was a terminal illness, not from any Class A drugs i was on for treatment and pain. So why didn't you give me a card?" If the neighbor responds, "I thought you were on drugs and looked unwell because of that," it undermines the man’s entire treatment and recovery process, which was evident through his efforts and progress. This response would suggest that the neighbor is inadvertently equating terminally ill patients with drug addicts—an assumption that stigmatizes the illness. The paradox lies in the phrase, "I only received 'Get Well Soon' cards from those who knew the truth." By answering this question, the neighbor is stuck in a loop, as any response would place them in a paradoxical situation. //////////////////////////////////////////////// Girl ya' so' Tropical; because i am the cherry to your coconuts' 18/03/2024 MIDDAY: Removed domes and sprayed 0.5% HP! 19/03/2024 Lights On! The war is over 😢 once the new map has been drawn out! There are no side! They are well over fighting over land. It's a show! This feels like a 'Unpassive Grow' just letting it lead where it wants to go! Lights Off! Sprayed domes 0.5% amd sprayed tent walls 6% and covered them back over for bed! "Motels should be called Hotels. Where, Hotels should be called Motels" - Whores are always at the Motels; that's why they should be called Hoe tales, but where do they hog tie their pig moe tails, thats at the Hotels 😒 😤 - can be done at both places too i suppose. 20/03/2025 Lights Off! Few hrs later Sprayed domes0.5% and sprayed tentwalls 6% 21/03/2025 Lights On! Removed domes and deffolled/supercroped! I thought let's have some fun with this "unpassive growing style!" It may look like a Cyclone sweeped right through my grow. hopefully in the next 3days the domes are no longer needed and can leave them alone to grow size. 22/03/2025 Lights On!

They're just now finishing up their big stretch. Had some clawing from nitrogen toxicity during the flip but a light flush has the new growth back to normal.

I never thought I'd say it but i think when it comes to my indoor C4 vs my outdoor C4 Indoor takes the prize, I mean that's only for now lets see what happens in the upcoming weeks. I'm sticking to my bat turd mix and all sun, I shift her around during the heavy showers, yea it rains out here. I don't feed no store bought nutrients all from nature same goes for my indoor ... if you look closely you'll see that I lst her it's only because of her mutation.

This is my 2nd grow of Runtz Auto by Zamnesia. It's a fairly compact strain, smells fruity and this go around smells very similar to poison strains (red poison, Durban poison, ect). I believe the terpene is terpinolene. I wish I could test it😅. Anyways, She was chopped on day 80 Spent 7 days drying Yield: 2.02 ounces dry weight Huge thanks to plagron and Zamnesia. Thanks to the eternity Grow Cup. It was an honor. 🙏
